Re: AA with class keys compared with identity instead of opEquals

For D-classes this is the default. For extern(C++) classes it's not defined. That's why I added the struct wrapper on top of an extern(C++) class.

Object class has required infrastructure ready for using classes aa keys (have not tried though). Object class has both toHash and opEquals already implemented. That's gonna be much slower. And I need key's to be checked for equivalence ,not equality.
